I pulled these codes yesterday, 0182- (Fuel Temperature Sensor A Circuit Low Input) and PO845. I cant find that last code. Can anyone explain what the first code means and why can't I find the second code anywhere? Please help!

Thanks
 
The code 0182 means that, that perticular sensor is seeing a voltage lower that typical: its either Fuel rail temp. or Fuel tank Temp. The second 0845 is (Transmission Fluid Pressure Sensor/Switch B Circuit), this one is probably a secondary system. Do n't take my word for it though. Hope this helps:thumb:
 
Ahh, ok. 0845 must be what I'm experiencing with my trans. as of today. Second gear feel's nonexistent. It feel's very mushy and It's hard to tell if I'm even in gear.

My car is running a bit rich also(o2v is at .98-1.02). Would that cause the fuel system to see temperature problems? I don't know if this has anything to do with running rich or the error codes but, at some time during the last couple of days, my a/c fan got melted. I didn't notice any abnormal ECT's(214 deg. F max). I'm lost!

One more thing...I did a boost leak test and found a huge leak coming from my mbc. I attempted to fix it today. Haven't tested it as of yet though.
 
Okay, from what you said the o2v is (.98-1.02) it is supposed to between 0-1Volt. I recommend replaceing the sensor. As with the fuel system, I have no idea try asking the dealer or a shop. The mbc is suppose to leak thats it's purpose it bleeds off extra pressure. Your a/c fan what parts melted?
 
I think I read on RRE's site that on 2g's the o2v should be .94-.96 at wot. In 3rd gear mine is .98v and 4th gear it's at 1.02v. That's why I said that I was rich.

As far as the a/c fan, the blades were melted.
